Answer 1

the person above is correct

Answer 2

c. 384 square feet

Explanation:

First, you must find the total area of the pool and deck combined. Because the deck is 4 feet wide and it wraps around the entire pool, 8 feet can be added to both the length and the width of the pool to get the measurements of the whole rectangle combined.

25+8=33

15+8=23

To get the total area you multiply 33 by 23

33 x 23= 759

Then you get the area of the pool alone by multiplying 15 by 25

15 x 25= 375

Then you subtract the area of the pool from the total area to get the area of the deck

759-375=384
